Sell your home fast in Winchester, VA by putting yourself in the buyer's shoes

When you walk into a home for sale, what do you want to see? How about if I add a little more to the question? What do you want to smell? What do you want to sense? What do you want to imagine?

I showed a house a few years ago that left the buyers and me thinking that the owners were probably serial killers butchering people in the basement. That sounds a bit extreme, but that was the vibe the house gave as soon as we walked in. It was dark with very little lighting available. The wooden furniture was all painted black. The windows were darkened by room darkening shades. It had all of the creepy feelings of a scary movie. We didn't even go to the second floor. If you were the buyer, would you go to your second floor? Sell your home fast in Winchester, VA by putting yourself in the buyer's shoes.

Sell your home fast in Winchester, VA by talking to your neighbors

A good price, a great location, and a great condition might be keys to a quick sale, but messy or nasty neighbors can torpedo all of your good intentions in a second. If you have a messy neighbor, you might want to suck it up and walk over and explain to him/her that you are going to sell your home. If his yard is a disaster, you can offer to help him clean it up. You may want to share with him/her what his mess is doing to your home sale. Do it kindly, carefully, and tactfully, but do it.

If you have great neighbors, you are ahead of the game. Their pride of ownership will be a plus for you. Thank them for being good about keeping their property clean and inviting. Let them know that you appreciate it, and thank them for their diligence in helping you sell your house. Sell your home fast in Winchester, VA by talking to your neighbors.

Sell your home fast in Winchester, VA by making repairs before you list.

Make those long overdue home repairs before you list. I know, you're busy, but ignored home repairs will come back to bite you once a home inspector passes through your home. I ran by a home yesterday to check on a few home repairs a homeowner had made. They were sited on his home inspection. Sadly, they were simple things like screws missing on a key-less lamp base.The cost of having a contractor drop by to add two screws would have bought a really nice celebration dinner after closing. Why let that hang up a deal? Take a walk through your house, or better yet, hire a home inspector to do an inspection before you list. Fix what is on the list.
